[Mono-winforms-list] Mono 1.1.5 on SuSE 9.2

[Arnhoffer Károly]

I installed SuSE 9.2 (not full) with Mono (1.1.4 first 1.1.5 after). I had got several easy problems and then two hard remained.

This error occured becouse package gd or gd-devel was not installed (I installed them by random and it worked :)).

This error occured becouse Hungarian keyboard layout was set. I reset keyboard layout in Sax2 to US English, and now everything is fine.
I hope this may be helpful for others.
